autism talk

i feel soooo socially inept . like i try to joke about it but i feel so awkward and out of place ALL THE TIME and its genuinely exhausting

i love talking with people and being able to discuss ideas and everything but every time i talk i HATE it because i am completely unable to actually get my point across. and i dont even know if its a me issue, like maybe i dont have enough vocab or i just dont know how to express my thoughts?? i dont know, but its just such an alienating experience; i constantly feel like im not made for this, for people, even though i KNOW that i love socializing and meeting all kinds of people. 

does anyone else feel like this?

I’m not autistic (as far as I’m concerned) but I get what u mean. I always feel like I sound so stupid when I talk because I can never find the correct words or express things properly. My mind is constantly moving faster than my mouth is and I tend to speak really quickly in a way I can’t actually catch up with so I tend to stutter a lot. It’s funny because I’m completely fine through text but that’s because I get to plan what to say beforehand

yeah exactly!!! i tend to be a lot more misunderstood irl than through texts, but then again i sometimes have trouble conveying the right tone through texts so i still cant get my point across (also, elliott smith and snoopy pfp???)

Yeah I get that which is why tone tags can be helpful but I know most people don’t really use them, I don’t think they’re always necessary but there are some situations which make ur statements clearer with tone tags. Also yesss I love Elliott Smith and Snoopy :3
